One of the best vegetarian hotel in Pondicherry though the price is bit costly it values the for the taste u will enjoy in each and every food served. Especially their chutneys are too good and unique Taste.
One of the best south indian restaurant in Pondy a must visit place
Staff is friendly and ambience is neat and clean. We ordered Mysore bonda which is amazing a must visit place
Great breakfast options. Ghee idli is a must must try. Pocket friendly, polite staff, great location. Recommended.
Best dosa I've ever tasted. Choose any dosa from their menu and you will.not be disappointed. The South Indian thali meal is also a catch. The ambience is that of a fast food joint and they are really fast no matter how crowded the restaurant. The staff is courteous and willing to help you with your order.
We were sight seeing in Pondicherry when we asked our driver a good place to try veg food. Instantaneously the driver said we shud try Surguru.
The driver also informed us to reach there a lil early becos once it gets crowded then there is a lot of waiting time.
The ambience clean and buzzing
The staff courteous and attentive
We ordered the paneer makhani, the zaffrani veggie korma rotis and fresh lime soda.
Zero points for presentation but everything was delicious.
For the south indian touch we tried the rava dosa which was crispy and yummy, shud i say the best i must have ever tried.
At Surguru hoja shuru.
When your here try their french onion soup and their choke bhature. In south Indian foods their dosa and meals are very famous. I always have their vanilla milkshake which i personally crave for.
It has one of the best ambiences amongst the restaurants there. Its a complete package! But on weekends its a long wait due to the rush.
The food is good and the wait time was crazy. š But I feel it's worth the wait when the food arrived. Sure would like to revisit during my next visit to Pondi. Hope I get the table soon š
This was the place which made me not miss the home food when I was in Pondicherry.
Literally went here everyday for lunch while I was here.
Tried their meals, veg Biryani, aloo paratha, paneer Pulav. All the dishes were excellent.
For breakfast was there only once and had their idly, vada which was a little disappointing.
Overall if you are looking for a place to have pure veg food while in Pondicherry don't look further.
This place is great for South Indian food. Very hygienic and courteous staff.
They are usually open in the mornings and is a good option for breakfast.
If you want to grab some authentic South Indian food, definitely try this place.
I knew I had to try this place, even before I set foot in the beautiful town of Puducherry. I wish they open in other places in the country too. Blind choose anything from the menu and I am sure it cannot go wrong. The weekend mornings are usually a bit too busy but I guess that is for a reason!
Being in pondi and missing authentic south indian foood den trip wud be incomplete...dis place deftnly go and have ther thali....its soooo yumm nd authentic...wid different sabzi dal and sabodaana kheer and papad and unlimited serving of rice and dal for rs1l48...its heaven...ul be satisfied and happy to visit surguru..
Wonderful and a must visit place for all Vegetarians in Pondicherry.
Had been to this place on all 3 days of our visit to Pondicherry.
Ordered the below at the restaurant
1. South Indian Thali
2. Sambar Rice
3. Mushroom Fried Rice
4. Veg Noodles
5. Roti Dal combo
6. Veg Pulao
7. Elaneer Payasam
All the dishes were decently priced, delicious and filling.
Elaneer Payasam is DEFINITELY A MUST TRY item from their menu.
The staff is very friendly and the service is also very GOOD.
The food was really good and tasty. Worth the money. It was sizzling hot and the package was well sealed without any damage. Tempting and mouth watering food it was.
Had an amazing time here. I have been here multiple times during my visit and it was just wonderful. I have been to multiple surguru outlets and I have to say all are amazing.
Best place in Pondicherry for authentic South Indian style breakfast. This place is very clean and food tastes so delicious, freshly prepared. We ordered some simple breakfast, Ghee Masala Dosa, Puri-Sabji followed by some coffee. Each item was absolutely fantastic!
Traveling to Puducherry for the first time, did some pretty intense research about the eateries that this city has to offer. One name that kept coming up for itsā South Indian fare was Surguru and hence became a must do on my list. And boy am I so glad that it did!!! This is a no frills simple yet spacious restaurant which offers both South & āNorthā Indian fare. We went there for the South Indian and that is what my review is based on. The idli an absolute melt in your mouth and the vada a crunchy with fluffy centre delight. The masala dosa so satisfying; not too oily either. The accompanying chutneys absolutely fresh and taste bud tantalizing. The showstopper was definitely the sambhar though..could not get enough!! The service is swift and efficient, the staff soft spoken and the space extremely clean! Could not fault anything even if I wanted to!! A definite must try place!
Heard a lot about this place. Went there for lunch had onion masala dosa, rava onion dosa, special thali and north Indian thali. The food was amazing. Service is quick and it's nice place to sit and beat the heat. The buttermilk was not so great but I loved the food.
It's the best place you'll find in Pondicherry for South Indian . And the staff is very polite and helpful in all way . Ghee masala dosa and pista shake are too good. Uttapam is okay . Ghee mini idli is great . My personal favourite are dosas
Amazing place if you are looking to have authentic South Indian food. We had thali and the taste of all the items was out of the world. Must go if you're in Pondicherry
This place is simple n good for delicious south indian Thali, the food was simple tasty, n not spicy. Was good on my aged parents n kid, they liked it n were able to digest it good. The taste was awesome, simple n the pickle n chutney/ thovaiyal was out of the world. Started with a creamy soup, sambar, rasam, thick curd, n we asked for an they din mind tat my daughter shared my thali. The people are a little slow in service, n if the place is crowded it is hard to get their attention. But, the next day when the place was less crowded they were really good. Over all, good choice for veg in Pondy, will be back next day for breakfast.
One of the best parts of our Pondicherry trip is dinner at this place.The ambiance is wonderful. We tried variety South Indian dishes like Mangalore set dosai with Vada curry, Kerala parotta, veg biryani, 3 type utthappam, idiyappam, and so on, and everything was awesome. Pricing is very low. A definite recommendable place for every tourist who visits Pondicherry.
Simple clean and unassuming place with a small menu. Ordered a thali and it was tasty and typical of sucha place. Ordered steamed rice, ghee and dal for kids and again was simple warm home kinda food so both kids had their full. Filter coffee to do nd the meal and was not disappointed. Recommended especially if you are traveling with kids and need a break from the typical French food that is so typical of Pondy nowadays.
P.S. was there for lunch and this place is big. Big as in can sit at least 50-60.
lip smacking south indian snacks!!!
ā¢Food: Loved every bite of masala Dosa, idli ,wada, sambar, Rawa dosa and variety of chutneys!
ā¢ Ambience: really liked their entrance and the seating place is also very spacious!
ā¢ Service: its very quick and efficient.!
ā¢Definitely going back there to relish authentic flavours!
Nice food.... We had thali.... This is one the few restaurants where I finished all of the given curries... Nicely cooked rice... It was a bliss to my tummy after a long shopping in Sunday market under hot sun...
Most recommended place in Pondicherry. Our auto wala also recommended this restaurant. Though we went to this area for Cafe Xtasi but landed here. By the time we had the table we were really hungry. N to my surprise i loved the South Indian food. Somehow I didnāt like the South Indian food in Pondicherry but at this place the sambhar tasted good.
So we ordered one Onion Uttappam, Rawa Masala Dosa and Cheese dosa and Fresh Lime sodas.
My favourite was Rawa masala dosa.
A typical family restaurant.
If looking for good South Indian food visit this place.
Customer service is great. And so is the food. The ambience is typical of a restaurant. But the restaurant is quite popular because it's extremely packed. Amazing coffee ā takeaways are encouraged here. And loads of parking available for both 2 and 4 wheelers.
I believe this is one the most famous chains in Puducherry for relishing authentic South Indian food! From dosas to wadas to various types of idlis, rice dishes to South Indian Thalis...it's your go to place! There is also an option to opt for the North Indian and continental food they offer! We ordered the South Indian Thali, which was a mƩlange of all things coconut-y and spicy. The payasam was truly authentic. All the dosas we tried - Ghee roast, rava dosa, masala dosa, Appam, Mysore Rava dosa, idlis.... nothing over here disappointed. Their Milagai podi powder chutney is to die for!
One of the best place for breakfast in puducherry.
Restaurant is easily accessible with good ambience and polite and cordial staff.
Food quality is great. I loved the idli and vadas here.
Also value for money.
Had been here for breakfast and lunch! A best place to visit when you want to settle down your tummy's noises after enjoying in Pondicherry. We enjoyed proper South Meals in scorching heat. We enjoyed the proper Tamil Nadu style breakfast (Sambar Idly/Pongal/Vada). Must visit to soothe ur tummy while returning from Pondicherry. Family restaurant. Easily Accessible. One good thing I liked about the Management was they had arranged an option for elderly people who cannot climb up/down stairs. They have created a ramp where the person can sit and come down for the restaurant and vice versa.Food:5/5Price:5/5Ambiance:5/5Service:4/5Cleanliness:4/5Quantity:5/5
Nice food, pocket friendly, great service. Very good option for having nice south Indian breakfast/lunch. Waiters are very well mannered and quick.
Surguru , Mission street
After a long morning of cycling around white town ,decided to hit this place for breakfast
Food was very good ,but the service was the best Ive seen in a long time
The waiters are very well mannered and very quick
The ambience was fine
A good place to have a decent south indian breakfast
We had our breakfast here after disappointing breakfast in bakers street the previous day. Though we thought, we would stick to eating french/continental breakfast, we decided to have breakfast in surguru and the place didn't disappoint us at all! This place is a must visit if you love south indian food or if you are tired of eating continental food in Pondicherry ;) We decided to have rava dosa and onion dosa. Trust me the onion dosa was the best I ever had! They served us 3 varieties of chutneys along with sambar and were really good considering we are used to eating watery chutneys in Bangalore! The ambience here is really good including beautiful entrance and the people who serve food are polite and service is fast.
Great place which is always crowded. Ordered a surguru special thali and business lunch. The food was tasty, less oily and quantity was also good. Complete value for the money paid. Will definitely recommend this place to all those who are looking for some good South Indian food.
It is a pure vegetarian south Indian cuisine.. Bt I tried their kashmiri polau, veg biriyani, malai kofta, Gobi Manchurian..
Taste is really good..
Price is reasonable..
Staffs are good ..
Surguru is known for south Indian cusine and it's pure vegetarian restaurant. We tried south Indian thali which is good in taste and yummy varieties.
Good ambience and courtious staff. Will visit again.
Visit Surguru for authentic South Indian food where the taste and smell of the spices and masala gives you the feel of authentic Indian food. The exquisite taste of the dishes leaves you hungry for more. For people looking for vegetarian food, this place is great. The food is cheap but the quality is not compromised. Will highly recommend the onion Uttapam!
Staffs provided fast and efficient service. Their most popular dish which is the South Indian Thali is a must have. It was so good that we had to do several refills! Overall the experience is good, minus the ambiance which can be better.
Its great restaurant for South indian food, kurma Partha, and ghee roast dosa is osam, but some dishes is not available due to cook, service is good
The food was delicious.If you're into South Indian food do visit the place.It is a pocket friendly place and the service is excellent.One can go with family and friends.

One of the famous Vegetarian restaurants in Pondicherry. Clean and neat ambience. The food was delicious. Quick service. Must try place for breakfast.
Simple setting, good food, courteous staff. Had breakfast and lunch here.
Their lunch meals are worth it.
If you feel like having south Indian veg meals in pondi, this is one good spot.
One of the best south Indian Thali I have ever had. A must visit place while visiting Puducherry. Dont expect much when it comes to decor or ambiance but food wise you sure wont complain.Ā

Surguru has 4 outlets in different parts of pondicherry. Opens early and closes late. It serves a great range of south indian dishes.
Everything you would order might nothing else but just make you happy!!
Its masala dosa, idli, vada, masala tea, all were great!
We also tried cheese dosa which was nothing but a plain dosa with 2 cheese slices inside! :/
Searching for a pure vegetarian restaurant?
Here is the answer for you guys..
Been to this place n number of times..
Overpriced but one of the best āSouth Indianā PURE vegetarian place you can find in Pondicherry..
Try Tandoori idly if you wanna taste something different..
Really nice place, ordered almost everything that was south indian on menu, really liked ghee mini idlies, masala tea, there thali is must try, it has got lovely flavours, the chutney, and variety of sabzies is awesome, i really liked the green one, dont know the name. Also tried there litch rabri cream available at there different outlet at nehru road. All in all a must go.
Decent service, very good South Indian food,Grape juice was amazing and the Surguru special meal was packed with good stuff including a soup and an ice-cream.
We were on a family trip and they were warm to receive us. Management is good. Space is huge. Relaxed environment.

All rating is out of 5. At the end I am happy and you should visit for pocket friendly place.
It was my Pondicherry trip with family where during lunch, we were looking for some good South-Indian restaurant and our search landed up on Surguru. Place is very approachable from MG Road or Bussy street.
Food was good and reasonably priced. The usual South-Indian thali was good. The only disappointed that I had was that we have re decided the items couple of times because staff wasn't very clear on their current available stuff.
We had made it a point to explore all famous food places in Pondicherry, and while most places disappointed, this one lived up to the hype! The ambiance was calm, and service was prompt. The lightening was yellow which irritated me a bit because I'm more accustomedĀ to white light but it's a personal preference. I ordered Rava Dosa and coffee which were quite tasty, and dosa reminded me of delicious dosas I used to eat in Chennai. It was huge and was quite filling.Ā

On point service. On point hospitality. On point cleanliness, hygiene. No frills for extra sambhar,Ā chutney. Had four different types of Dosas, including the French Dosas. All were delectable and kept on calling for more.Ā Price is super reasonable. Can't go below it, that's for sure.Ā Do try.
The food is good and cheap. Service may not be prompt. We ordered french onion soup which they didn't have. Palak paneer and gobi manchurian (more like gobi fry) were nice but kashmiri pulao was weird (it had sweet potato) Ambience was alright, I like the lighting, kinda pleasant.
Hii....we had Jain Palak paneer n fried rice...quality quantity n taste.....alll satisfactry....thanks to zomato....it helpd us lot in finding
Pure vegtarian rest in Pondicherry.....
There are many but difficult to find as per ur taste
Surguru....
Service was quick
STaff was nice....ambience was gd tooo
Can definitely visit
The Best place for Vegetarians at affordable price. Ordered Vegetable fried rice and vegetable pulav and vegetable biryani. All three were very tasty . Ordered Coffee. Coffee was not good and very costly. it costed 34 rs for a cup of coffee. That is the only negative point I found . Otherwise Good
Ambience is nice. Had a thali meal and it's good and tasty. Service is ok. Real value for money and it's a good place to visit with family. Overall experience is satisfactory
Loved South India food , best place for vegetarians (i am not one) had to since my friends were veggies. My friends had great time at your restaurant. Highly recommended.
The best hotel for vegetarians in pondicherry. Vegetarians must try this restaurant. Esp. South Indian thali , tandoori idli, ghee dosa, palak paneer dosa which they serve with 3 different chutneys and sambar. Quantity is good so is the quality and service. This place is almost full all the time and is pocket friendly too.
Exotic food, very nice ambiance and I have decided whenever I visit Pondy will visit this restaurant to have a pure and tasty food. Thanks Surguru team.
It was our first day in Pondicherry and we just arrived.We were starving and found this hotel nearby.We ordered Pongal,Vada,Ghee roast and Masal roast.All of them tasted like traditional south Indian food.I loved it.The size of the roast was pretty large.The staffs there were very friendly and the service was prompt.Only drawback is that pricing is slightly on the higher side.But overall it was a pleasing experience.
Service-3.5/5
Food-3.5/5

Too good ..just yum...best south Indian meals ever had ..a must visit place for the meals lover ...not spicy but very delicious ..if anybody in pondy must go..
Nice restaurant for having food. Not so hard on pocket though having a nice ambience. The place might get busier but I happen to go around 4 pm so it was all quiet. But nice service and the food was tasty too. One good thing I liked is that they serve hot water to drink.
A nice location for vegetarians. Food has good taste. order each item separately; if not, they will deliver everything at once. When you order coffee and a dosa, they serve at the same time.
A great pure vegetarian restaurant in Pondicherry on the main street just opposite to the church. The food here was really good. We ordered a Veg Thali, green salad and Butter Masala Dosa and we were highly satisfied by the quality of the food served here by the restaurant. Everything was very well managed and disciplined even though it was very crowded.
The best place for South Indian breakfast options in whole Pondicherry. The place is very hygienic and well maintained. The food is delicious , less oily and high quality food. We tried iddiyappam, Pongal with Wada , Poori , Masala Dosa and ended the meal in South Indian style with a coffee. Pricing wise itās very reasonable, it costed around Rs 500\- for 3 people . I would recommend this place every person who wants to have authentic South Indian breakfast. You must have breakfast at least once during Pondicherry trip . Highly recommended place.
If you looking for good vegetarian food while in Pondicherry, Surguru is a place you can't miss. The food is absolutely delicious with homely ambience and excellent service. Highly recommended.
Probably the best Veg Restaurant in Pondicherry. Being a regular customer for years, this restaurant never fails to impress me with their taste. We ordered Tandoori Idly which was fab.
IMO, a must tryš§āš³š„¢
Took 5-10 min waiting cause of rush but eventually got a good seat. We ordered ghee roast and onion uttapam and coffee. Go before the rush starts in as they were out of masala for masala dosa by the time we ordered. Must visit
One of the best south Indian restaurants in pondicherry. Food is fresh, the ambience is authentic and service is excellent.
We had our breakfast and dinner here .
Mini idly , masala dosa , paalak poori we have ordered for breakfast and all were good . Their medu Vada doesn't have crisp , so we don't like it. Their filter coffee was good , however the juices were not . Kindly try taking juices outside as there are many juice cafes out serving good Juice.
The next day we ordered fried rice and chilli paneer . Surprisingly both were prepared nicely . Chilli paneer was a little spicy as they put a lot of black pepper, however we forgot to mention them to make it mildly spicy. The fried rice was nice and the portion was also good š compared to the price . It was sufficient to share among 2 people .
Their lime soda was good , but butter milk was not.
Overall food is good and service is excellent. Beverages need little improvement.
I recently dined at Surguru, a delightful veg restaurant conveniently located near the market. The ambiance was a breath of fresh air, with ample greenery creating a serene atmosphere.
We sampled a variety of dishes, including the Surguru special thali, Mysore Masala Dosa, onion uttapam, and Mushroom Masala. The Mushroom Masala was a standout, bursting with flavor and a definite must-try.
However, the Veg Biryani was a bit of a letdown, lacking the robustness of flavors I had expected. On a positive note, the prices were reasonable, making it accessible for most diners.
Surguru seems to have a strong presence in Pondicherry with multiple outlets, making it a convenient choice for vegetarians looking for a diverse menu in a pleasant setting.

A very good place for breakfast. Simple ambience and great food. All the items ordered were not good.
I would recommend this place.
